Rockdale County Needs A Dog Park

In an age where people are becoming more isolated within their homes, and where we talk and shop more and more through our keyboards, it has become all the more important to hang on to whatever sense of community that we have left. One of the silent complaints - the after affects - of the society whose desire to is hurry through the day, can be the sense of isolation and the loss of contact within our community. Our purposes, in the creation of the "Rockdale County Dog Park", will fill the needs of many individuals as well as the needs of our dogs: a safe place for our dogs to run and play off-leash, developing new friendships with other dog owners, exercise for the humans as well, and another avenue to help retain the sense of community.

After such inccidents that occured at Barksdale Elementry School we feel that the evidence is even substanciated further that our School play grounds and Public parks such as Johnson Park are not equipt or safe places for residents or dogs to participate in such activities.
